Solid Tumor Cultures for Chromosome Analysis
(Waisman Center Cytogenetics Lab, University of Wisconsin - Madison)A. Samples of solid tumors or lymph nodes may be sent from patients with cancer. These samples should be processed directly and also set up for short term culture of tumor cells. Care must be taken to avoid over-growth of normal fibroblast cells that are also present in the tumor specimen.http://www.slh.wisc.edu/cytogenetics/Protocols/Cul...Added: Mon Dec 09 2002, Hits: 147, Reviews: 0Write reviewCached

Tissue Culture on Coverslips
(Waisman Center Cytogenetics Lab, University of Wisconsin - Madison)Skin tissue may be used for chromosome analysis in special cases when the results from peripheral blood are inconclusive, e.g. suspected mosaicism, confirmation of a new chromosome disorder, or special dermatological disorders. Tissue may also be used when blood cultures are not available, such as on stillbirths. http://www.slh.wisc.edu/cytogenetics/Protocols/Cul...Added: Mon Dec 09 2002, Hits: 224, Reviews: 0Write reviewCached
